The street vendor, suspected of scamming, slightly changed Gauss's initial impression of Farlim, which he thought was orderly.
Upon reflection, it made sense.
Just like any affluent area can have its poor, the seemingly glamorous streets aren't short of those who engage in petty crime, and this is the norm of the world.
However, generally speaking, when it comes to the power and quality of adventurers, he felt that the adventurers in Farlim were clearly one or two levels above those in Gray Rock Town.
Even the bottom adventurers often wore well-maintained armor.
For newcomers, the importance of armor far surpasses that of weapons, and it's generally more expensive.
This is the influence of regional economic levels.
In developed cities, the salary levels are higher. Assuming the youth have no family support, adventurers in Farlim could save more starter funds than those elsewhere, assuming they work the same hours, to buy better armor, weapons, and various tools.
